The Night He Found Me

I laid my heavy head upon my bed,
Worn thin by the day’s demands.
Every inch of my body burned,
And soon I fell into deathlike sleep.

In that land, I met the Lord—
Long had I evaded Him;
But this time, He found me,
And would not let me go.

He kissed my weary soul,
Overwhelmed by His love;
I poured out my broken heart,
As His gentle hands held me still.

I know not all that passed between us,
But I woke with a heart made willing—
Ready to serve,
Ready to follow where He leads.
